How it started:
Coffee releases are like songwriting to me.  I knew when I first talked to Jared at Hacea about this coffee and then sample roasted it, this was going to be something epic.   This one literally took on a life of its own. This is the most creative work I have ever produced for a release so I hope you enjoy it - coffee should be an experience 

The Coffee:
El Salvador Finca Colomba Oro Tinto Robusta Especial Honey 

This is my first ever robusta offering. For those who aren’t familiar with what that is, robusta is the second most cultivated coffee species behind arabica, which is predominantly what is typically offered by roasters in the U.S.  This robusta is dark, creamy, nutty and chocolatey. It has 2x the caffeine of arabica while having no acidity. Shoutout to Mario Valiente and Finca Colombo on the producing, it’s unique and it’s delicious.

The inspiration for this release comes from Iron Maiden’s epic 1982 album, The Number of The Beast. The coffee tie-in centers around numbers, EVERYTHING is numerical when you think about it - coffee density, coffee to water ratios, dosage of the coffee, TDS, roasting development time, and more!  I always look for creative ways to tie coffee and music together and this has been an absolute blast to create!
